Chasing Coral | FULL FEATURE | Netflix

Chasing Coral taps into the collective will and wisdom of an ad man, a self-proclaimed coral nerd, top-notch camera designers, and renowned marine biologists as they invent the first time-lapse camera to record bleaching events as they happen. Unfortunately, the effort is anything but simple, and the team doggedly battles technical malfunctions and the force of nature in pursuit of their golden fleece: documenting the indisputable and tragic transformation below the waves. With its breathtaking photography, nail-biting suspense, and startling emotion, Chasing Coral is a dramatic revelation that won’t have audiences sitting idle for long.

I played this for my mother. She was quite overwhelmed with emotions as she asked me, "Can we put ice cubes there? A lot of ice cubes? Will they survive?" And I had to explain to her how much energy it will take for the sea, even for a tiny portion of it, to change in slight temperature. How big is the scale of the disaster we are facing right now. How everything is connected. It is a desperate plea that I had to shut down. It is the crushing reality of conservation. How hard it can be. How powerless we feel in the face of short-term profits and politics. We fed lies to children about how easy conservation is. They understand a tree is good, but overlooked the biodiversity, how the soil is formed by the pioneer fungus and fern, how big trees can not exist without those soil conditioners. A forest and lives in it can not be made in ten years, and it takes a single night to be destroyed. I hate to be cruel.

Exactly. There's a talk I found in here too abt how planting trees isn't just a simple task. It really depends on the soil condition as well.

[@skystygian]

It's not cruel, it's reality. As someone about to get my biology degree I can say I've only become more and more depressed and hopeless though my studies. Sure, we can bring all the attention in the world to climate change and its effects, but no real changes are being made. The fossil fuel industry continues to be funded by the tens of billions and we are ALL indirectly contributing by simply living our lives because of how every single system has been set up for us to survive on, and a few documentaries that will be watched by the relatively powerless people who actually care isn't going to stop that. We need to be targeting this issue politically and financially and on a massive systemic scale. We need more than a few groups and organizations and scientists who are just talking about the numbers and dates and statistics of how we're destroying the ecosystem and companies using their baseless pledges to go "net zero" to entice more customers into feeding the same old destructive systems but thinking they're actually helping. As much as I think these documentaries are important to get more people to be informed and care, I also know that it isn't directly helping, and that's what drives me crazy.

Richard is correct. It's fine to provoke emotion from your audience but as a public speaker, you do not want to be at the podium and crying. Once he loses composure he would be perceived as inept. I applaud everybody involved in this documentary. I've been interested in the reef keeping hobby since the late 90s and never pulled the trigger... It's was shocking to hear the one quote earlier in the film State that he had never heard of reef only tanks. (Some fish compete for food from corals in an aquarium setting...)

You can use your problem free time to spent helping the earth you live on. There is so much an indivudal can do. Just throwing your trash back at home, not letting anything fall on the ground because you think "that tiny bit of trash won't matter", is one big step in the right direction. That's exactly why the cities are buried in trash lying around, cause everyone thinks "this tiny piece of trash won't matter". Everything gets flushed into rivers, reaching the ocean and polluting it. Don't think that your small changes won't matter, because if everyone starts to implement small changes, it will account to a giant change in the world as a whole.

[@powerandpresence5290]

@@johngage5391 And coral thrives in warm water. It is a tropical phenomenon. The Australian Maritime Services report shows record coral growth for the third year in a row. Coral bleaching predominately occurs at shallow levels, involving the type of coral that recycles quickly. Coral bleaching is cyclical. That’s why any “three mass bleaching events” in the past did not stop current record coral levels. And yes, cyclical bleaching means there will come a time over the next decade or two where coral levels will drop again. What we have to be careful of is not attributing cyclical shifts in marine systems to factors that may not be the major issues. Yet there is nothing mentioned about this in the documentary (which I watched in full). It is indeed a very emotional film. But it is deeply misleading, at least as far as the Great Barrier Reef is concerned. I can’t comment on the other coral regions reported in the film. This doesn’t mean that we should not continue to monitor ecological problems in these reefs systems. We absolutely should do that. But these scientists and activists need to make sure they are addressing counter arguments and contradictory data. Otherwise it is a form of misinformation - or disinformation if they publish their work with knowledge of the issues I have raised here.

Check out Citizens Climate Lobby for a group that can help regular people take effective action to create the political will needed for elected leaders to pass the legislation changes we need. Thanks!

I have great memories from snorkeling in Thailand from 1983 to 1986. The species of corals and multi coloured variety of sea creatures were wonderfully amazing. You don’t need to go deep to see them. Am truly appreciative that I’ve seen them 🙏🙏🙏. Feel so sad with the massive bleaching all over our planet 😪. There must rays of hope for our children 🙂

[@michaeldorrence9387]

Absolutely Top-Notch. Thank You Netflix and All who made this possible. Watching Zachery get emotional brought a little mist for me...that kid wears his Passion and Emotion on his sleeve. I can't begin to fathom what it's like to stand by helplessly, and watch something you Love slowly pass away, although I'm sure he understands that the Effort put forth today may have reaching effects for the future. Thank You.

Amazing documentary. I recently dived the outer barrier reef and would love to have opportunities to do so 30 years later. I hope we can bring more attention to this problem.

Hi listen? Have U watched this documentary?

[@fearless_earther]

So touching... 😭 No words to describe my feelings after watching this masterpiece. Great job, guys! Together we will make our planet Earth 🌍 Great again!!!

[@alvevandenbremen4569]

I am so dissapointed that my country, The Netherlands isnt on the list to be powered by clean energy and I am happy to be moving to Sweden in the next two years. The torment of nature is one of the only things that makes me cry these days. I have watched many documentaries about all sorts of horrors on our planet and I see a connection between all pain and suffering. All is caused by an unhealthy system that we are all a part of globally. Weather its a job bunrout, a gassed pig, a war or the dying coral and the melting ice caps. Its a sickness thats being spread by our own irresponsibillities and I sincerely hope that it will change and that all parts of life will start to flourish again, because we choose to change and to give back and create life as much as our earth still tries to take care of us. Thank you so much for this great documentary! I love it!

[@carlocutamora5610]

I hope that all of us take it seriously for the next generation and all government officials take a big actions before it's too late. Really depressing 😢

[@johngage5391]

Check out the "take action" menu at Citiens' Climate Lobby. There's lots we can each do to make a significant difference in helping our elected leaders take this seriously and pass the necessary legislation.

Went to key west with family on vacation. Like always I always go for at least a day of diving. Have not dived Key west in 34 years. Had to add that twice. 18 to 52. Then there were fish everywhere you had to swoosh them away to look at things. Lobster and crab everywhere .Beautiful corals giant anemone's everywhere. Life everywhere. Everything is just about dead. Hardly any fish left. Not a lot of lobster or crab. (I did not see one diving) A coral outcrop here and there. Not one anemone. It was devastating. Words can not describe that sadness I felt. Kind of like if you were to go to your favorite local park and a volcano dumped ash on it and it was just dirt no grass no trees or plants. Everything down there is covered with a layer of coral dust sand looks just like ash. Very few fish not any large schools. This is so real. No body can see what is happening because it is a hidden world to most. They need to do video every year.

[@meganb7749]

1:18:17 This feels like straight from an world ending movie drama .. but its real. I'm in tears. And I've never even seen a coral in the "wild". I'm only 33 years old. There will be no corals left when I'm retired.
